MORE ABOUT THE MURAL
Georgeta enjoyed having the opportunity to work with the talented and passionate Interior Decorator, Daniela Nuila, at Mint Decor Miami Inc.
Constellations are totally imaginary things… The International Astronomical Union recognizes eighty-eight constellations covering the entire northern and southern sky. Most constellation names are Latin in origin, dating from the Roman empire, but their meanings often originated in the distant past of human civilization. The significance of the zodiac stems from the fact that the ecliptic — the narrow path on the sky that the Sun, Moon, and planets appear to follow — runs directly through these star groupings. Since ancient times, the Sun, Moon, and planets have been known as special astronomical objects — they “wander” through the background stars of the zodiac, which remain fixed with respect to each other. It was reasoned that these zodiacal constellations must be special to make up this path, and the relative positions of the “wandering stars” within them bore great importance.
After some research, the interior decorator, Daniella Nuilla, decided to include four zodiac signs – Gemini, Capricorn, Taurus, and Orion, surrounded by stars, the Moon, and the Sun. The designer has transformed this small room into a cozy and inviting space.
Besides being an important historical site, the Deering Estate has emerged as a cultural art center, fulfilling Charles Deering’s dream to support the arts.
Mr. Deering was an art collector, a philanthropist, and an amateur artist.
This charity project was completed for the 2018 Junior League of Miami Showhouse at the Deering Estate, April 15-29, 2018
